The outrage in the article that teaching-while-drunk is not illegal. š Iām pretty sure thatās going to be covered in the employment contract, not every stupid thing has to be a court case.
Plus Iām surprised the elementary school kids didnāt eat her alive, coming to class without her senses.

Cardboard deconstructionism is the cutting edge of feline expression.

You know these are the types who, when asked, would assure you theyāve sacrificed so much for their kids. Thatās just parenthood, youād kill you your kids.
Small pinch in the arm to respect your kidās right to keep their kid safe? No.

We need pretty maps and eel facts and dog pictures even more when everything else is too much.
Please?

Generally breaking copyright law by publishing something you do not own the copyright to, especially when making money off it, is considered theft.
Would be nice if there was language to differentiate stealing a car and stealing a symphony but there isnāt.

LLM AI does not deserve a unique exception to copyright law just because rich people donāt want to pay for the same things everyone else pays for.

Independent programmers arenāt working with LLM AI, the hardware and energy costs are too high. Normal people canāt afford a warehouse of servers and a power plant to run it.
Academic programmers working with LLM AI already pay for or otherwise license their media.

Bluesky is set up more for the audience member than the speaker.
If you came here to find interesting ideas, you can find them. Lists exist.
If you came here to find an audience, there is no algorithm/Mommy to force interaction.
You still get to play, you just donāt get to be quarterback.

Made the mistake of letting the foster kittens loose in the vet exam room, surely sealed against tiny holes for animals to disappear into.
2 inch gap in the baseboard under the sink.
Thankfully they came out to investigate their siblings playing.

Forcing AI creators to have responsibility for the output of their AIs - whether thatās copyright violations or misleading medical information - also helps everyone.

Additionally, I think AI will be improved by forcing AI training data to be curated and retained for legal purposes.
The costs will drive out a lot of AI speculators, though I doubt itās the death of LLM AI as predicted. Thatās a cultural and environmental good.

Iām not convinced that refusing to add an AI company loophole to copyright laws is the same thing as tightening them. Theft is still theft if you launder your spoils through a computer.
Theft is not a business model.

These days we celebrate even the accidental or unintentional improvements to the lot of the little guy, dumb luck may be the only force left on our side.

Disney already owns all the media it would use to train an AI so itās reasonable for them to want to stop other parties from using their media for free.
Since training data is essentially part of the AI code base, forcing companies to curate and pay for that data will improve AI performance, imo.

Yeah. Military is the only option for healthcare a lot of people have. So congrats you arenāt going to die of that tooth infection, now you are required to treat community members as enemy combatants.

I mean, is it that different from people in other countries saying the same thing? Itās still a human screaming at you.

If I were a Freudian type person, I might point out that fear of normal people that turn into monsters once a month possibly correlates with fear of the gender that experiences emotional disregulation due to hormones once a month.

Thatās a good point. General loss of capacity even in ānon-disabledā people is really difficult to quantify but itās important to note.
I think we all need to watch for that in coworkers who might try to keep up with a now unsustainable workload - coping needs to be communal as well as personal.

It does seem like there isnāt much awareness of categories other than citizen and illegal.

If itās banned as a weapon of war we shouldnāt use it as a weapon against civilians either.

Iām convinced a portion of the population believes that itās āland of the fearedā and behaves accordingly.

Good teacher! That is a great way to present history about civil rights - not to mention all the assorted protests and revolutions through history.
Plus clearly useful information going forward.

Once again Iām wishing people could be forced to take anatomy and physiology classes when the take bad medical claims.
If we can force people into traffic school, rehab, and anger management why can we make them learn biology?

AIs are an excellent way to depersonalize a system so that the biases already there become obvious.

My husband uses āschmoopyā as both a nickname and descriptor for one of our cats - including a wide range of nonstandard verbing and nouning.
āFull of Schmoopā, ārocking the schmoop grooveā, āSchmoopolotipusā, etc.

Consequences of literally any kind need to come back, if public shaming is what we can do then start there.

Canāt even call the faked charges āhuman smugglingā because that might suggest that people other than citizens are human.

And anyone who calls the cops to report someone elseās miscarriage is voted out of the family, friendship, acquaintance, and/or human race as appropriate. Snitches get stitches.

Should hire the homeless folks to fly the drones over cops. Probably catch more crime that way anyway, and all that disappearing dash-cam and body-cam footage will have a backup.
comment in response to

Plus any attempts to not be homeless - job interviews, talking to landlords, using shelters or medical services - are definitely hindered by having a noisy drone overhead.

āWe may prosecute you if you miscarry and have inappropriate emotions about itā
Same guy: āMake sure you call law enforcement to alert them to a miscarriageā
Women are supposed to volunteer medical information (no warrant) so that cops can decide if they miscarried legally?

The country that forces schoolchildren to recite the pledge of allegiance every day is worried that college students may not be able to question belief systems.
The country that arrested college age protesters is worried about entrenched beliefs.
